Mooring System Market Expected to Witness the Highest Growth 2025

Global Market Insights, LLC’s, recently introduced report on ‘Mooring System Market‘ delivers a holistic view on market valuations, market size, profit estimations, SWOT analysis and regional landscape of the market. In addition, the report points out key challenges and growth opportunities, while examining the current competitive standings of key players in during the forecasted timeline.

Global Mooring System Market size is estimated to grow rapidly with the increase in subsea production and exploration activities in deep and ultra-deep waters. Increasing consumption of energy owing to rising population and economies is estimated to boost the mooring system market. Lucrative high investment regions in Middle East and Africa have impacted the industry outlook positively.

Rising demand for crude oil owing to excessive consumption will propel the offshore mooring system market. As per the International Energy Agency (IEA), global demand for oil was 92.6 million bpd in 2014 and 94 million bpd in 2015. Rapid technological advancements in drilling and production capabilities of rigs to aid production and exploration in deep water areas will drive the mooring system market to generate revenue. Increasing production from offshore fields, economic feasibility of projects, unexplored potential for large hydrocarbon reserves in deep water and rising oil and gas prices are the major drivers for rising demand of mooring system market.

Onshore hydrocarbon reserves have been explored for many years, with gradual reduction in natural reserves, thereby making offshore activities more prevalent. Depletion of non-renewable energy sources and indiscriminate onshore oil and gas field explorations have also spurred concerns including pollution and have caused significant damage to wildlife, boosting the demand for subsea processing systems.

Based on application, mooring system market can be segmented in Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO), SPAR platforms, Tension Leg platforms, Semi-Submersible platforms, Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG). The major share of the mooring system market is occupied by FPSO. Offshore platform is a large structure, which facilitates the extraction and processing of crude oil, subsea drilling and temporary storage of extracted products. Offshore mooring systems find major applications in the offshore platforms and vessels. A mooring system is used for anchoring of ships and platforms in water depths. A floating vessel or platform is connected to the sea floor with the help of mooring lines. The mooring lines are made up of chains, wires, synthetic fiber ropes or combination of the three. Environmental factors including winds, currents and waves govern the type of material to be used in manufacturing the mooring lines.

The mooring system market is categorized into catenary, spread mooring, single point mooring, taut leg system, semi-taut leg system, and dynamic positioning system. Amongst these, catenary systems are the most commonly used for shallow waters. Spread mooring can be used in any water depth, in an equally spread pattern. During the forecast period, the catenary systems are estimated to have the highest growth rate. In terms of anchorage, the mooring system market is further categorized into suction anchors, vertical load anchors and drag embedment anchors. Among these, suction anchors are the most cost-effective and safe for deep water environments.
